Health is much more than just hitting the gym and killing calories on the treadmill. Sensible health management and weight management depends a lot upon what you choose to put into your mouth. Most of us today are overfed and undernourished. Eating fast food frequently and binge drinking is the most unhealthy way to live. It is a source of degenerative disease. You cannot trash and pollute your body and expect to have perfect health in return—even if you exercise regularly. Sooner or later you will develop metabolic syndrome and other lifestyle diseases. It is only when you are fifty will you discover that what you ate in college upto your late forties didn’t go well with your body! Life can only be understood backwards—but it must be lived forward! Invest in your health. Don’t take it for granted. Eat right. Find time to exercise. Sleep 3-4hrs after the sun goes down. This practice supports your immunity, your hormones, your biorhythm, and your energy levels. Sleep for at least 7-8hrs every night. This is crucial for maintaining a high level of health because all the repair work happens in your body when you sleep. This information can significantly alter your health and life for the better—if you can discipline yourself to follow even a couple of rules diligently.
